[cfaussie] CFObjective ANZ
So, Anyone here planning on going to any of the pre-conference workshops? I'm still trying to get the powers to be - to agree to send me to Charlie's CF Server admin workshop. While most of charlie's information is available on his website and on the mailing lists he loiters upon there's nothing quite like being able to ask specfic questions and get specific answers on the spot.

Re: [cfaussie] CFObjective ANZ
and to back you up in what you say, Gavin, a classic case is formal study. When I was teaching, I tried to impress on the students, that although all the info was - in theory - out there ready to tap into, what was lost was structure and context. Sometimes it needed the expert to deliver it in a way for people to have the epiphany. and of course, there's the followup questions that are sometimes invaluable. I heard a story of a guest lecturer traveling around giving guest spots, who had a driver/PA on tour with him. After a while the driver said what you do is easy! I reckon I can do that - I've heard the same lecture enough times. so they made a pact that the next stop they would swap roles and the driver would give the lecture. Sure enough the driver did a good job regurgitating the same script ... until someone in the audience asked a pointed question. The guy kept his cool, trying to hide he wasn't the guest lecturer. what a silly question he said. So, silly that, in fact, I'm going to let my driver answer that question! context, and expert advice, is everything.

It's the questions after the presentation where it really clicks for me. I heard a story of a guest lecturer traveling around giving guest spots, who had a driver/PA on tour with him.

That is quite funny... I'll have to try and remember that one! Gavin. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.
